A Mother Killed Her Children... Then Tried to Die With Them | True Crime Documentary

Lindsay Clancy, a former labor and delivery nurse from Duxbury, Massachusetts, is accused of strangling her three young children — Cora, 5, Dawson, 3, and Callan, 8 months — in January 2023, before attempting to take her own life by jumping from a second-story window. She has pleaded not guilty, and her defense argues she was in the grip of postpartum psychosis at the time. Prosecutors argue the killings were planned. After twenty-one days of testimony, dueling forensic experts, and days of jury deliberation, her 2026 trial ended not in a verdict — but in a hung jury and a declared mistrial. This video walks through the full case: the timeline, the evidence, the expert testimony on both sides, the courtroom arguments, and where the case stands now as prosecutors decide whether to retry it. We separate what's confirmed from what's still contested — because in a case this legally and emotionally complicated, that distinction matters.
